It's great when it works, but without the dive you are screwed. In the present era, it's a gimmicky offense that fails spectacularly if your opponent is talented and prepared. You need only look at Paul Johnson's bowl record at GT to see what happens when a more evenly matched team is prepared for him. He victimizes schools that only have a week (or less) to gameplan for him. He only got his second bowl win in a good while last year, after many failures. Again with UF, I am assuming you are talking about 2013 when they lost to GA Southern. The problem is, they lost to a lot of teams that year (4-8). They were a fundamentally bad team in the midst of a five game losing streak when they lost to GA Southern (not to take away from what the Eagles accomplished). That GA Southern loss wasn't because of their offensive scheme. It was more about a team feeling that they failed fantastically, that some of their coaches were going to be removed, and that it's going to be seen as a lost season. The only two offensively strong teams they played wore them out (Missou 36-17 and FSU 37-7). Throw in a loss to an awful Miami (21-16) and an even worse Vandy (34-17!?!?).
